Saves & Stat Checks
Saves resist an effect rather than strike a target. Roll a d20 and add the relevant save bonus; the effect names its defense and determines what the result does.
| Save | Ability contribution |
|---|---|
| Fortitude | Constitution |
| Reflex | Dexterity |
| Will | Wisdom |
Stat checks
When an action calls for an ability-and-level stat check, roll d20 + the relevant stat modifier + level. Use the check requested by that action; attacks and saves retain their own bonuses.
Conditions and saves
Frostlance applies drained 2 on a hit. Drained 2 gives a −2 Status penalty to Fortitude. When another Status penalty affects the same save, use the worse penalty rather than adding both.
Bonuses and penalties are resolved separately for each save. An Item bonus already included in a save is not added again when another Item effect is applied.
